Strategy Presets

Presets are named configurations that enable a specific combination of leg types for a given bot. All identifiers on this page match the canonical keys in packages/shared/src/strategy-presets.ts (STRATEGY_PRESETS).


Presetlower_shortupper_shortupper_longlower_longStatus
lower_protectionEnabledDisabledDisabledDisabledLive
full_short_protectionEnabledEnabledDisabledDisabledLive

Enables only the lower_short leg. Bastion protects against downside price exits (price falls below P_lower). The upper_short reentry leg is inactive.

Use case: You want protection against a downside exit only and do not want to hold a short position at reentry.

Enables both the lower_short and upper_short legs. Bastion protects against both a downside exit and maintains a short position until price re-enters above P_upper.

Use case: Full protection — you want a short position open both when price exits below and when it re-enters from above.

Presetlower_shortupper_shortupper_longlower_longStatus
orbit_long_onlyDisabledDisabledDisabledEnabledLive
orbit_short_onlyDisabledEnabledDisabledDisabledLive
orbit_bothDisabledEnabledDisabledEnabledLive

Enables the lower_long leg. Orbit monitors for a LONG mean-reversion entry from the lower range edge (interior trigger).

Use case: You expect price to stay above the lower edge and revert upward when it dips toward P_lower.

Enables the upper_short leg. Orbit monitors for a SHORT mean-reversion entry from the upper range edge (interior trigger).

Use case: You expect price to stay below the upper edge and revert downward when it rises toward P_upper.

Enables both lower_long and upper_short legs. Orbit monitors for mean-reversion entries from both range edges simultaneously.

Use case: You expect mean-reversion in either direction and want Orbit to trade both edges.
